MC Raff, AV Whitmore, JT Finn - Science, 2002 - sciencemag.org Neurons seem to have at least two self-destruct programs. Like other cell types,
they have an intracellular death program for undergoing apoptosis when they are
injured, infected, or not needed. In addition, they apparently have a ... Cited by 215 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 5 versions
RT Libby, Y Li, OV Savinova, J Barter, RS … - PLoS Genet, 2005 - genetics.plosjournals.org In glaucoma, harmful intraocular pressure often contributes to retinal ganglion
cell death. It is not clear, however, if intraocular pressure directly insults
the retinal ganglion cell axon, the soma, or both. The pathways that ... Cited by 61 - Related articles - Cached - All 12 versions
